Abstract: A rack contains a number of shelves arranged on top of each other, which carry, among other things, board magazines with printed circuit boards. An apparatus for cooling the aforesaid printed circuit boards containing telecommunications or electronic equipment in each rack is based on the principle that one or more shelves in the rack are integrated each with its own heat exchanger, which is equipped with cooling flanges and at least one tubular coil. The heat exchanger is connected to a cooler for a coolant. The heat exchanger covers the greater part of the horizontal plane of the shelf. Heat-transfer members with extensive heat-conducting contact surfaces are provided between the board magazines and the body of the shelf and between the latter and the heat exchangers. Each heat exchanger and the cooler are arranged to permit a high packing density of the aforesaid telecommunications equipment in the rack and to contribute towards removing heat emitted by the equipment by means of heat conduction via the aforesaid heat-transfer members. In one embodiment (FIG. 7), the total shelf cooling function provides for the aforesaid removal of heat unassisted. This heat removal is also provided for by natural convection at the hot and cold surfaces and by radiation. In a second embodiment (FIG. 1), the shelf cooling function is combined with a row cooling function (open or closed), air conditioner or similar installation.

Abstract: A cable management rack is provided within which or upon which a heat-generating device is mountable, and which encompasses a vertical rectangular frame open in a front and a rear of the frame. The rack includes a first upright and a second upright attached to opposite respective lateral sides of a base and a top member, and respective side-facing panels. Each of the panels defines a plurality of vent holes arranged in an array and permit the rack to receive a sideways flow of cooling air into a first side of the rack through one of the vent hole arrays for cooling a heat-generating device mounted between the panels, and permit the rack to discharge a sideways flow of exhaust air through the other vent hole array. Each of the array of vent holes may manifest a honeycomb pattern of vent holes, and each of the vent holes may manifest an hexagonal shape. A cable management system includes a cable management rack for accommodating a heat generating device, a first baffle mounted with respect to a first upright of the rack and for redirecting a rearward flow of cool air sideways from a space adjacent a front side of the rack, and a second baffle mounted with respect to a second upright of the rack and for redirecting a sideways flow of exhaust air from the rack and through the second upright into a space adjacent a rear side of the rack. A method of cooling a heat-generating device mounted in or on a cable management rack includes providing a sideways flow of cooling air into the rack and into the device.
